Give me something to break!

More than 50 percent of American parents say their kids have damaged a mobile phone, laptop, tablet or another portable device, costing moms and dads more than $2.8 billion in repairs and replacements.
A third of kid-caused accidents with mobile devices involved food or drink:

50 percent involved milk

19 percent involved chocolate

17 percent involved candy

16 percent involved yogurt

And boys were 35 percent more likely than girls to have caused the accident.

About The Author

QMIX Afternoon Guy, Brent Lee, grew up near Greensburg -- where he started working on the radio at age 14. Growing up as an only child may have been lonely at times, but it led him to be the creative, fun guy we all enjoy on the radio! Brent graduated from North Decatur High School and Ball State University. His first summer during college, Brent actually filled-in as the QMIX Afternoon Guy all summer, when there was a full-time opening on our staff. Little did he know he would return to that job many years later. Brent has worked in radio all over Indiana (and a bit in Illinois too), claiming to never have had a real job. And he’s has been back at QMIX since 2011. We hope he’ll be here for a long time to come! Some of Brent’s favorite things are IndyCar, movies and good food!
